Fluid Power Fundamentals - Session 5 Recap
Session 5 is where everything starts coming together—valves stop being individual components and start acting like a full team (for better or worse). BJ walks through how different valve types interact in real circuits, how flow, pressure, and direction all influence each other, and why small setup details can have a big impact on performance. From synchronized actuators to load sense systems and accumulator circuits, this session highlights what actually happens when a system is running—not just how it’s supposed to work on paper.
Fluid Power Fundamentals - Session 4 Recap
Session 4 shifts into valves—the components that control pressure, direction, and flow (basically, the ones that decide if your system works… or just sits there). BJ breaks down the different types, how they function, and why small details like pressure settings and flow control can make a big difference in performance.
